LONDON: The former England captain Michael Vaughan said on Tuesday he felt strange that the entire white ball squad three lions were asked to isolate after three players and four member staff members were tested positive for Covid-19.
He also gave the example of Scotland Football Star Billy Gilly Gilmour who tested the positive Covid-19 for the ongoing Euro 2020, but the other team members were not asked to isolate.
“Billy Gilmour positive test & not one member of the Scottish team or staff must beolated …
English cricket team members & all squad must go! ?????? times are very strange …
I think we will or have to see things Alex thing again though …

The Cricket England team has been forced to choose a new side for the ODI series against Pakistan after seven positive Koronavirus tests in the host camp.
Four back room staff and three British crickets have been positively tested for Covid-19 and as a result, the troops of all hosts have been included in isolation.
The UK will play Pakistan in three ODIS and as much as T20IS.
The ODI series will begin on Thursday and the third and last match will be played on July 13.
All-rounder Ben Stokes will lead a new team when he returns to the squad after a finger injury.
The New England team for Odi Pakistan will be named later on Tuesday.
“We have been prepared for now, and are attentive that the emergence of Delta variants, along with our journey from the strict enforcement of the Bio Secondary environment, can increase the opportunity of the outbreak,” Sky Sports quoted Tom Harrison, Tom’s chief executive at the ECB said.
“We make a strategic choice to try to adjust the protocol, to support the overall welfare of our players and management staff who have spent many of the 14 months of life in very limited conditions.
Overnight we have worked quickly to identify new troops, and we thank you to Ben Stokes who will return to the English assignment to the captain, “he added.
